This study is the first to use two identical Fast Mobility Particle Sizers for simultaneous measurement of particle number size distributions (PNSDs) at a street site and a rooftop site within 500 m distance in wintertime and springtime to investigate new particle formation (NPF) in Beijing.The collected datasets at 1 s time resolution allow deduct
The majority of morphological abnormalities reported for elasmobranchs are cases of bicephalia.This contribution describes MIRIN the third confirmed case worldwide and the first in the South Atlantic of diprosopus tetrophthalmus (craniofacial duplication) in a foetus of blue shark, Prionace glauca (Linnaeus, 1758), from a female caught off the Braz
Plastics provide numerous societal benefits but have adverse effects on the environment over their life cycles; however, the magnitude, time horizon, and scope of these impacts is uncertain, particularly for plastics that are lost to the environment.Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method intended to capture environmental impacts of a product from
Abstract Alternative splicing (AS) is a strictly regulated process that generates multiple mRNA variants from a single gene, thus contributing to proteome diversity.Transcriptome-wide sequencing studies revealed networks of functionally coordinated splicing events, which produce isoforms with distinct or even opposing functions.To date, several mec
Background: Cannabis is the most used illicit drug in the world.Global trends of decriminalization and legalization of cannabis lead to various forms of cannabis use and bring great concerns over adverse events, particularly in the cardiovascular (CV) system.To date, the association between cannabis and adverse CV events is still Health controversi
